From vision to faith: how I discovered Jesus

Re-evaluating faith: from doubt to certainty
October 27, 2024I’m Mohamed from Egypt, and I am 29 years old. I am a traveling street vendor who loves Jesus Christ, watches religious channels, and sometimes sells in front of the monastery in Dronka. I found a picture of the Lord Jesus holding the hand of a child and telling him, I love you and am with you always, and I had an unusual emotional response to it. I also have the Lord’s prayer memorized, and when I recite it, I experience huge amounts of comfort. I contacted Nawal’s page via the contract info posted on the page, because I was starting to feel like my thoughts were getting out of control, and I was having hallucinations. We talked about human nature and it’s weaknesses, and the reasons our nature was corrupted. We talked about how much God loves us, and how He came in human flesh to save us from our weaknesses. I learned about God’s nature, and so many questions circled in my head about the Lord Jesus and about the cross. I believed all that I heard, and the people at Miracle asked me if I understood and was convinced, then why wait to ask Jesus to live in my heart and become a son of God? I agreed to pray with them, and when I prayed I felt such incredible peace. I also understood that I would need time and help in order to continue learning and growing on this road, but that I wouldn’t be alone… There would be people to walk with me. They encouraged me to go to the nearest Christian bookstore and buy the Bible, and begin reading it, specifically focusing on the new testament.
